Richard Briers - R.I.P.

I was extremely sorry to read about the passing of Richard Briers. Here was a man whose boyish looks and twinkling eyes, held us, his viewers enthralled and entertained throughout his long career.

My first encounter with this actor was through the BBC series ‘The Good Life’ in which he played the part of Tom Good, the husband of Barbara (Felicity Kendall). They portrayed a middle-class, suburban couple who together decided to escape the rat race by setting up a small holding, complete with a hens and a pig in their back garden.

Thank you so much for the link, Mel. I have just been charmed all over again. What a great show it was and what incredibly nice people. Richard Briars was very well loved by millions. I hope he's leading the Good Life wherever his big heart has gone.
